Hi,

Robert Vollmert <rob <at> vllmrt.net> skribis:

> rob <at> garp ~/guix$ nano gnu/packages/haskell.scm 
> rob <at> garp ~/guix$ ./pre-inst-env guix build ghc-ansi-wl-pprint

I’d suggest running “make” once you’ve edited a file.

It’s not strictly necessary (Guile then simply evaluates code instead of
running compiled code), but it will allow you to get rid of these
warnings, the compiler might warn you ahead of time of possible
mistakes, and the whole thing will be slightly faster.

Does that make sense?

Ludo’.
